Antrodia cinnamomea is a very precious medicinal fungus. It has similar efficacy to Ganoderma lucidum, but its efficacy is more than 20 times that of Ganoderma lucidum. Its growth environment is harsh, it only grows in the mountains and forests of 1800-2500 meters above sea level in Taiwan, China, parasitic under the camphor tree, and loves a dark and humid environment. It is precisely because there are few suitable environments for the growth of Antrodia camphorata, so it is extremely precious and scarce in quantity, so the price will be slightly higher.
It has high research value because it has many physiologically active components that are beneficial to the human body, including triterpenoids, polysaccharides, adenosine, superoxide dismutase, nucleic acids, immune proteins, blood pressure stabilizers, etc.
It has many physiologically active components that are beneficial to the human body. From the analysis of contemporary science and technology, Antrodia Cinnamomea Extract is known that there are 4 main physiologically active components of it, and these 4 components correspond to different effects:
①Triterpenoids
Triterpenoids are currently the most abundant terpenoid chemical constituents found in the fruiting bodies of Antrodia camphorata, and are also the main source of bitterness in it. It has more than 200 triterpenoids, of which as many as 10 triterpenoids are unique to it. Experiments have confirmed that these triterpenoids can effectively inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells, reduce the activity of cancer cells, protect nerve cells, and improve the growth ability of nerve cells.
② polysaccharide
Polysaccharides exist in a variety of mushrooms, with molecular weights ranging from thousands to hundreds of thousands. The different molecular weights of polysaccharides are due to the different number of sugar groups connected to them, and the molecular weights of different sizes also have different effects, which are roughly divided into three categories:
(A) The molecular weight is about 3000~5000, which has the function of lowering blood sugar.
(B) Those with a molecular weight between 10,000 and 100,000 have anti-inflammatory effects.
(C) Those with a molecular weight of 30,000 or more have antitumor effects.
The larger the molecular weight, the better the effect. The polysaccharide contained in Antrodia camphorata is β-D-glucan (β-D-glucan). β-D-glucan has anti-tumor and microbial abilities. The various abilities of these β-D-glucans are due to their ability to promote the body’s defense against viruses, bacteria, and molds by stimulating macrophages, T-lymphocytes, B-lymphocytes, and natural killer cells. Therefore, polysaccharides can strengthen the body‵s immune system, and then achieve anti-cancer and anti-cancer effects.
③Superoxide dismutase
Due to today’s progressive modern society, environmental pollution and life pressure flood around everyone, resulting in the formation of a large number of oxygen-containing free radicals.
Therefore, it is also very important to fight and block the damage caused by oxygen-containing free radicals to cells.
In addition, free radicals are also closely related to aging.
Superoxide dismutase is an important antioxidant enzyme in the body, with special physiological activity, it is one of the primary substances for scavenging free radicals in the body. The various functions of superoxide dismutase include anti-aging, inhibition of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, anti-oxidation and anti-fatigue.
④Adenosine
Adenosine, also known as “adenosine”, plays a very important role in the process of human metabolism. In addition to helping energy transfer, it also enhances blood circulation, because it can promote coronary artery expansion and significantly increase the normal coronary artery. The blood flow of the arteries does not cause excessive blood flow in the narrowed coronary arteries, so it can achieve the function of redistributing the blood flow in the coronary arteries.
In addition, because adenosine can effectively inhibit platelet aggregation, it can avoid the formation of thrombus, and has a stable and improved effect on cardiovascular diseases.
